Halloween parties in Ibiza - where to go and why.
Halloween in Ibiza is a legendarily wild time, with parties, costumes and décor being taken super seriously. We round up the best of the upcoming parties so you can start getting prepped for the magic.
House of Horrors at Club Chinois
The sun has only just set on the first summer season at newly minted Club Chinois and they’re already back at it. Expect extraordinary décor, sound and light shows and Ibiza’s best costumes, along with peerless DJ sets from island faves Manu Gonzalez, Sara Main, Carl Kennedy. Ibiza’s iconic la Troya family will be handling theatrics, so come prepared for a serious show.
Twisted Tales at Sabina Estates
A gothic fantasy from the south of Ibiza’s most remarkable venue, the sprawling eco-resort of Sabina. Last year’s Circus-themed bash was a magical medley of the wicked and the wild, with outrageous costumes, decadent dancing and a decidedly bacchanalian atmosphere. This year’s Twisted Tales promises to pick up where Circus left off. Come for supper and stay as late as you dare – these parties come round but once a year.
The Acid House Haunted Hotel at Pikes
Pikes and Halloween go hand-in-hand, with Ibiza’s wildest crowd and most unprintable stories. This year’s Acid House session, presented by the notoriously wicked Brothers Grim (aka We Love’s Mark Broadbent and Andy Livesey) will be no exception – go early and expect to still be there 24 hours later wearing (at the very least) someone else’s costume.
Melon Bomb at Lío
Marina Ibiza’s chi-chi cabaret club Lío may be known for its ritzy cabaret, but it’s old-school Ibiza faves Melon Bomb who’ve got their hands on the sumptuous venue this Halloween.
Book for dinner and stay for the ultimate October dance-off with Melon Bomb stalwarts Ben Santiago, Corbi, Paul Reynolds and Scott Gray
Halloween at Akasha
Precious few Halloween details have been released yet, but Las Dalias’ ultra-high-tech Akasha has been arguably the success story of the summer, with a sound system based on Fibonacci's auric maths and sacred geometry principles. Akasha attracts the north’s most beautiful and bohemian, so expect something suitably sexy and shamanic.
Halloween at Ibiza Underground
Ibiza’s Underground’s cult classic Halloween parties are the stuff of legend, with 23-hour opening times, an ever-changing roster of talent (half of whom seem to just drop in and play unannounced) and an insider crowd who are there for music and dancing only. We love Underground’s raw, intimate atmosphere and inclusive, no-holds-barred parties. Come late (take a disco nap first) and don’t expect to leave until around November the 2nd.
Wiccan Samhain Celebration and Ritual in San Carlos
Samhain is the pagan and witches New Year. This is a time to honour and remember the ancestors and those who have died. It is thought that the veil between the spirit world and this world is at its thinnest, making it the perfect time for witchcraft, spells and communicating with spirits on the other side. Sacred herbs will be gathered in the grounds of this 300-year-old finca before an altar is built, spells cast and a feast shared.
